Wild Saturday offers upsets, surprises and close calls

Brad Davison, Wisconsin's charge-drawing specialist, punctuated a wild Saturday in college basketball with a game-altering groin punch in a loss to rival Marquette.

Oh, college basketball, you've outdone yourself again.

Davison was the main character on a day that pit the sport against a slate of high-profile events: the Heisman Trophy ceremony, the Army-Navy football game, UFC 231 and the MLS Cup. It's a battle college basketball usually loses. After beginning with a breathtaking pace in November, the sport tends to slow down in December, as teams prepare for the January transition to conference action.
